Is this spaced repetition studying for random one-liners?

Do you come up with the algorithms, or do you only implement the algorithms? If your case is the latter, I agree with your preference for simply "computer programmer" as your job title. If you generate ideas as well, though, in addition to

Could you explain your concern? I don't understand why a favicon is important in this case.

Yes, there is a problem with the headline. The latter sentence should read, "Finding problems is hard." However, convention on HN suggests that it's appropriate to copy headlines verbatim from the linked article. It's unclear what the appro

I may mark this up in LaTeX, then, simply because I've never tried it on something this large. I'll share it here if that's alright with you, edw519. Question for the peanut gallery - embedding images in LaTeX seems to suck. Any recommendat

That's genius. I wish there was an organization in which they wrote most of their articles this way. Perhaps they could even send these articles to other organizations for some kind of reprinting fee.

"They weren't in for a free-for-all. They were doing their normal shopping and then got to the checkout. Half of them paid and the other half thought, `this is a good deal' and walked out." This is poorly titled.

The point is that it's really cool that some developer took the time to clean up part of the internet that is largely orthogonal to his life. That's respectable, right? If he put this in a blog post instead of a Reddit comment, would you st
